Brands in Focus: Milan Bathrooms

With the brand's elegant and minimalist designs turning heads at VP HQ, we thought we'd give you an in-depth look at Milan Bathrooms.

Named after one of the world’s fashion capitals, it’s only fitting that the Milan Bathrooms collection possesses a sleek, ultra-contemporary vibe.

The brand’s consistent range of over 200 products features almost everything you’ll need to give your space a designer-look overhaul. From stunning thermostatic showers to understated mono basin mixers.

So, to help give you a clearer idea of what the popular brand could do for your own bathroom, we thought we’d give Milan the ‘brands in focus’ treatment!

Why is the Milan Bathrooms brand so popular?

Sleek Angular Designs

With Milan, it’s all about angles. Sharp lines and rectangular shapes with subtly rounded corners dominate almost all of their products. This uncompromising consistency makes the brand ideal for those going for a complete renovation.

Milan bathroom suites offer a simple way for you to get started on achieving this uniform look. The suite pictured above, for instance, includes a Milan shower bath, toilet, and full pedestal basin. All of which boast the same design cues to give your space a consistent high-end look.

Compact Furniture

The Milan Bathrooms brand is an exemplary choice for those with smaller bathrooms, cloakrooms and ensuites. Among its furniture, you’ll find wall mounted and floor standing vanity units with slimline profiles that have a low impact on floor space while still providing stellar functionality and style.

The Milan Compact Floor Standing Basin Vanity (pictured above) is a beautiful example of compact bathroom furniture. It features the roomy storage cabinet with an internal shelf and a high-grade ceramic basin; all while projecting just 222mm from the wall.

Minimalist Vibes

Over the past few years, minimalism has gradually become one of the most popular movements in high-end interior design. The Milan range offers an attractive yet more affordable means of getting in on the trend.

The majority of Milan’s designs can be considered minimalist in that they are intentionally unobtrusive and feature little in the way of aesthetic detailing. This Milan Heated Towel Rail, for example, is an elegant pared-back heating solution with a design that puts functionality at the forefront.

Impressive Quality

With its great affordability, you’d be forgiven for thinking the Milan Bathrooms brand would inevitably have to compromise on quality.

Thankfully, this doesn’t seem to be the case as all items in their collection use lasting materials - such as high grade ceramic and water-resistant MDF - and modern manufacturing techniques to ensure longevity.

Guarantees vary in length from product to product but you can expect to find generous cover against defects across the entire brand.

Who are Milan Bathrooms for?

Milan Bathrooms are a perfect fit for style-conscious individuals who don’t want their bathrooms to look ostentatious.

While undeniably stylish, their products put function ahead of form and almost everything in the collection features similarly simple design cues; allowing you to easily create a consistent theme in your space.

Brand Highlights

Whether you’re planning a complete bathroom remodel or just want to make a few tweaks to heighten its look, we’ve put together the following highlights of our favourite Milan’s products. All of which will add contemporary minimalist appeal.

Impressive Milan Showers

If you find that time spent in your current shower is underwhelming at best, it could be time for an upgrade. Milan Showers provide high-performance, functionality, and effortless style at impressively reasonable price points.

This Milan Concealed Shower Package consists of a triple concealed shower valve, shower handset and a glorious overhead shower, all of which possess a simple square styling in polished chrome. The innovative triple valve allows you to control temperature and flow for the overhead and the hand shower simultaneously or individually, depending on your needs.

If you’re looking for a Milan Shower that’s a little more out of the ordinary, this Milan Shower Towel Panel could be the one for you. Its all-in-one design leans into the brand’s minimalist roots with the overhead, handshower, and body jets all accessible via its intuitive control panel.

Scene-stealing Milan Baths

Baths are another area in which Milan Bathrooms excel. You’ll find a diverse collection of over 20 Milan baths to choose from, all of which are made to high standards using twin skinned acrylic.

The Milan 1520 Square Modern Roll Top Bath is our top pick here. Uncharacteristically scene-stealing, this Milan bath will provide your modern bathroom with a true focal point. Its symmetrical design sits pleasingly on four chrome legs that add to its luxury appeal.

If you’re in need of a versatile option that provides ample room for both bathing and showering, the Milan Shower Bath Enclosure is a great option. Its sharp square design gives showerers a wider enclosed area for showering without compromising the bathing experience for those times where you’d prefer a good soak.
